Hardcover. Condition: new. Hardcover. Cosmology is a relatively new science, but cosmological questions are as old as mankind. Turning philosophical and metaphysical problems into problems that physics can treat, and hopefully solve, has been an achievement of the twentieth century. Modern Cosmology brings together contributions from a number of outstanding scientists currently working in various research fields in cosmology. Topics covered range over several different aspects of modern cosmology, from observational matters to advanced theoretical speculations. Cosmology is a different science, but cosmological questions are as old as mankind. This book covers topics that range over several different aspects of modern cosmology, from observational matters to advanced theoretical speculations. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.…

Shipped with care. --- An edited collection in the Series in High Energy Physics, Cosmology and Gravitation, with I. Ciufolini, E. Coccia, V. Gorini, N. Vittorio and R. Peron serving as editors. The volume gathers contributions on classical relativity, relativistic astrophysics, cosmology and their points of contact with theoretical and experimental particle physics, ranging in scale from the Hubble length to the Planck length. Among its articles are extended discussions of experimental tests of relativity, alongside chapters that carry the treatment through to the quantum frontier and the relationships among particles, fields, strings and branes. Reviewing the book in Contemporary Physics, R. Ellis described it as a collection of articles whose most valuable chapters were those devoted to experimental tests of relativity, which he considered to capture recent progress in the field.…
